Phone ringing screen lights up? - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

They May be a dumb question but I just realized that when my Phone rings the screen doesn't light up. I have to double tap the screen and then and only then it gives me the options to accept or decline the call. I checked the setting options and didn't see anything to modify. I do have tweaks and xposed but couldn't find anything I'm those settings either. I couldn't remember if it was always like that or if this just started. Anyone else experiencing this? Any suggestions? Thanks!

Need Help phone won't vibrate

Hey folks Ive tried everything with this phone but just can't get it to vibrate and I really can't recall it ever vibrating. I've seen in other forums that others are having the same problems but there didn't seem to be a solid fix. The phone will not vibrate during calls or notifications of any kind when I have it set to always vibrate or vibrate during silence mode. I've gone to all of my messaging applications as well to select the vibrate function and it still doesn't work. Need help if possible.
Thanks,
go to sound settings and check vibration intensity...might be off??

Doesn't work, I have the intesity all the way actually. Also when I move the sensitivity levels the phone doesn't give any feedback. I think the vibrate engine may be blown.
Are you on power saving mode?

[Q] Where the heck is the vibration option?

Having an issue with go sms pro which i'm sure some have had before; there is no vibration with notifications.
Now this is being caused because for some odd reason, system vibration is turned off, or so go sms says. There is no option in ANYWHERE to enable vibration in stock TW. I was able to fix this problem with my s3 by downloading a program called audiomanager, and setting it from within there, but as of new versions of this program, there doesn't seem to be an option for it in the free version.
So i come to you in a time of need. How in the world do i enable system vibration?! :crying:
Saw this on the tmobile website. Hope it helps:

I'm getting "Object not found!" on that url after a bit of trying to load whatever it is. Mind copy/pasting the details?

If you go into messages>menu>settings>scroll down to notifications setting and make sure vibrate is checked...... The phone will vibrate even when you are in sound mode. I cant figure out how to make it vibrate only in vibrate mode for messages. Hope this helps!!!

I assume you're talking about default messaging app, and it only works for itself. If i want to use another app like go sms, i'd need to uncheck notifications in that little area, also disabling vibration.
There is a master setting that needs to be enabled for it to work in go sms, but it's no where to be found.

Did you check under setting>my device>sound>vibration intensity ?
Gonna revive this old thread for anyone who is interested in this fix.
I've tried everything in this thread and nothing worked. I decided to go to the play store and search "system settings" in hopes that someone might have made an extended settings app for this reason. I came across an app called "Smart Settings". This app allows you to create custom profiles that have an on/off toggle for notification vibration; something current touchwiz versions, if not all android versions lack. All you need to do is create a custom profile with notification vibration set to on, enable, then uninstall. There's no other app or system option that will allow you to toggle the master notification vibration setting, so 3rd party apps like gosms will work flawlessly. Switching between built in vibrate only and sound on profiles do not effect the master system vibration option.
I hope this helps anyone with this issue. It was a pain in the ass to find something that actually worked.

Success! Thanks so much, there was an app I had used ages ago that did the same thing but then they made it pro only. I didn't uninstall but froze through Titanium Backup so it's there when I get flash happy and need to restore the vibrate. Now I won't miss all my damn texts.
Glad this helped at least one person out.

"Emergency Call Press And Hold" on lockscreen. How to disable this?

Hey guys. Now that we have root I have been messing around with G3 Tweaksbox/xposed to get the phone setup exactly to my liking. However, one thing I have not been able to figure out is how to disable the black button on the bottom of the lock screen that says "Emergency Call Press And Hold".
Has anyone found a way to disable this?

Also still searching for it. Gravitybox should do the trick but it won't work properly on my device so the button is still there.
Have you tried "no lock"?
It should only be there if you have no service correct?

emergency calls press and hold
Yes it occurs when i loose service/signal the problem becomes when i move to an area were i do get a good signal the phone remains stuck in the "emergency calls press and hold" mode until i reboot the phone. It happens several time a day. T-mobile has not offered any viable solution to the issue.

[Q] Lock screen or turn off screen when in a call?

Is there a way to have the screen either turn off or lock when you are in a call? There have been a number of times when folks have used my phone and they disconnect the other party because they move the sensor away from their face and back which causes the screen to come on and then the end call button gets pressed. Perhaps an Xposed module tweak?
Thanks,
Kevin

It works on our phone. Just tweak the setting to how far you want the "near" to be

Keep screen OFF when receiving notifications

I have a smartwatch and my beautiful phone has also a notification LED. Considering this, I do not want to use the lock-screen notifications at all.
Therefore, I turned OFF the lock screen notifications from the "sounds and notifications" settings menu but even now, in case of a notification or event, the screen will turn ON briefly. If the phone is in my pocket during that time and I have a trusted device nearby (my smartwatch) then the phone will unlock by randomly swiping the screen with my leg (large shorts ).
For the past few days I pulled out the phone in different languages, or with the tethering hotspot active or other randomly activated settings.
So, the 1000 points question is: how the heck can I force the 10 to not turn on the screen on notifications? I have no root and I do not intend to install one (company policy). Is there any solution? Thx.
Interesting. My screen never wakes up to show me a notification, so I'm wondering if it's app specific? I know with Textra, there's a setting to wake the screen for each text message, but I have that turned off.
It's definitely an app you're using that's turning on the screen.
I want my screen to turn on when I get a text message Im annoyed It can't

Thank you guys. It was indeed app specific. After you posted this I started looking in all the settings from all the apps with notifications access. The guilty one was Nils. There was a small switch to turn on the screen, indeed.
Thanks again.
